Error Log Levels

Each message category can be configured with one of the following log-levels:

none No messages are included in the log file.

error Only error messages are included in the log file.

warning Error messages and warning messages are included in the log file.

info Errors, warnings and informational messages are included in the log file.

all All messages are included in the log file. In most cases, this setting produces the same results as the info setting. In certain situations, this setting enables additional debugging messages to be logged.

inherited The log level is inherited from the value of the default-log-level property.

By default, the log level for each message category is inherited. As the
default-log-level property is set to info, each category inherits the info log level.

The log-level of a message category works in conjunction with the severity level
of a message to determine which messages are included in the log
file. For more information, see Message Severity.
